The three central principles of the Slow Food plan are these: food must be sustainably produced in ways that are sensitive to the environment, those who produce the food must be fairly treated, and the food must be healthful and delicious. Here the charismatic leader of the Slow Food movement, Carlo Petrini, outlines many different routes by which we may take back control of our food. Now it is time for answers, and Slow Food Nation steps up to the challenge. The best-selling Fast Food Nation and other recent books have alerted us to such dangers as genetically modified organisms, food-borne diseases, and industrial farming.

Slow Food Nation: Why Our Food Should Be Good, Clean, and Fair Author Carlo Petrini, Foreword by Alice Waters, Translated by Clara Furlan and Jonathan Huntīy now most of us are aware of the threats looming in the food world.
